The food is good. But inconsistently so. One day it will be totally perfect but the next time the French toast is too soggy or home fries are under cooked. Salad greens are always fresh so that's a plus! They will correct any issues you report though. Super friendly staff, so don't settle for less than great!

We had breakfast here on Sunday. The place was full. They only had one server on. Let me say she was amazing. She not only was waiting on all the tables . She was also, taking all the takeout orders in and out , and busing the tables. She did one amazing job and never lost here cool. Kudo's . oh, and breakfast was great too.

Waitress was sweet and attentive. Cashier was rude and hurried people. My biscuits and gravy were cold and not too tasty. My friend's food was amazing thou and she was happy with the gluten free bread

Very tasty, would go here again. I wish the home fries had been crispy, and the mushrooms in my omelette had been fresh instead of canned. But overall a really nice space, very pleasant.

Good food & coffee in a beautiful historic building. This is probably your best option for a meal in Whitehall, especially breakfast/lunch. They have a full barista bar but you can do well with just a quick cup of coffee to go. Eggs and pancakes are as good as it gets, the menu is simple and done right. The place is well-staffed with friendly competent people, which is a real accomplishment in today's labor market. The building's historic use was as a bank and then a town office. It's brick with classic decor, high vaulted ceilings, and lots of open space. The park across the street also provides a good spot to wait for a group to arrive. There's also the riverside walk which can be nice weather permitting. Parking is on-street or at the nearby lot, but it never seems busy.

Very tasty breakfast food! Cool place downtown in Whitehall - worth checking out if you happen to be in the area. Don't forget to stop at the awesome comic book shop nextdoor.

The interior of this renovated historic building is wonderful. Staff was friendly and running non-stop on a late Sunday morning. Breakfast was great and fairly priced. They have popovers (they're okay) for extra $ but the rye toast that comes with breakfast was fire. Toasted, soft, fresh baked, and buttery.

Delicious food and drink. I always get the chai latte and a wrap. So worth the visit.

Food was great as was the service. Their breakfast was extremely good and my friend raved about the grilled cheese with tomato (large sandwich with lots of cheese). The old brick is carried through inside and is really a cool looking building. Will definitely be back.

Nice location in a restored building. Lots of natural light due to huge skylight in ceiling. Limited hours on Sunday. Breakfast and lunch menu, but they stop serving pancakes and waffles at 11:30. I had a cheeseburger which was good, but not exceptional. Plate came with chips when I wanted fries, my fault for not asking.

Great place to stop for breakfast, especially if you want to get fortified for a long car ride. Lots of good breakfast choices with fresh ingredients - we loved the popovers! The staff was very friendly and welcoming.

Arrived at 12:30pm and closed. There was a sign outside that said “open” and web says it is open until 3pm. Several people came thinking it was open. Not even a sign on the door that said closed early. We drove 40 min. Very uncool.
